Case Reporter

In accordance with the Pace Law School Honor Code Part III.B.2.d, the Honor Board is responsible for maintaining a Case Reporter that includes the following information. The Case Reporter is made available to members of the Pace Law School academic community and is available for review at the Office of the Registrar.

Code Violation Notations. For each allegation resulting in a final determination (whether by informal resolution or formal adjudication) that a student has violated the Honor Code, the Case Reporter shall contain (A) a notation of the violation of the Honor Code; (B) a summary of the evidence; (C) a notation of the sanction(s) imposed against the Student-Respondent; and (D) the names of the Investigator(s), the members of the Adjudicatory Panel, and/or the members of the Appeals Panel, as applicable (together, a “Code Violation Notation”). If such determination is reached by informal resolution, the Investigator(s) shall prepare the Code Violation Notation, as set forth in Part V.A.4. If such determination is made by formal adjudication, the Adjudicatory Panel shall prepare the Code Violation Notation, as set forth in Part V.B.11.a, subject to reversal, alteration or modification by the Appeals Panel. A Code Violation Notation shall not include the name of the Student-Respondent and shall not include the name of the person reporting the alleged violation(s) of the Honor Code pursuant to Part IV.A.

Code Non-Violation Notations. For each allegation that does not result in a final determination (whether by informal resolution or by formal adjudication) that a student has violated the Honor Code, the Case Reporter shall contain (A) a notation of the alleged violation of the Honor Code; (B) a summary of the evidence; (C) a notation of any recommendation made in connection with the resolution of the allegation; and (D) the names of the Investigator(s), the members of the Adjudicatory Panel and/or the members of the Appeals Panel, as applicable (together, a “Code Non-Violation Notation”). If such determination is made at any time prior to the issuance a decision by an Adjudicatory Panel (i.e., through dismissal by the Investigator or by informal resolution prior to the issuance of a decision by an Adjudicatory Panel), then the Investigator shall prepare the Code Non-Violation Notation, as set forth in Parts IV.C.6 and V.A.4. If such determination is reached by the Adjudicatory Panel, then the Adjudicatory Panel shall prepare the Code Non-Violation Notation, as set forth in Part V.B.11.b, subject to reversal, alteration or modification by the Appeals Panel. A “Code Non-Violation Notation” shall not include the names of, nor any identifying information about, the Student-Respondent, any person reporting the alleged violation(s) of the Honor Code pursuant to Part IV.A or any individual involved with the case other than the names of the Investigator(s), the members of the Adjudicatory Panel and/or the members of the Appeals Panel, as applicable.
